Okay, dumb question from Captain Oblivious, but...

the count at the end of the game seems to mark the P7 row of six vertical white stones as alive. They look as dead as dead can be to me.

It's not unusual to sometimes omit marking stones as dead on a go server so long as the result is correct. It's only when its close that you carefully check all dead groups.

Where are the Hadoukens? :O

In other news, I'm laughing like a madman and I believe my head contains a giddly little santa-elf with an axe that's excitedly shouting "Blood!"

I wonder if he sets his real life boards on fire so he can feel the heat while he plays.

(Disclaimer: If you set your go boards on fire, you're gonna have a bad time.)

Move 191 is out of character -- surely B should cut at J12 :)

What the hell is with move 123? That's a double-digit kyu move.
We don't know who we are; we don't know where we are.
Each of us woke up one moment and here we were in the darkness.
We're nameless things with no memory; no knowledge of what went before,
No understanding of what is now, no knowledge of what will be.

Maybe, but a pretty poor one, given that it shrinks black's liberties from 4 to 3.

Of course, if you were to find one of the few 10 second blitz games I've played, you could probably find equally silly moves quite often. I didn't actually pay attention to the time settings when I originally clicked through the game.

this game is NOT 4D strength.
i guess they were just having fun blitz.
